The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Mason could not help but say, "Great-grandpa, it is not the time to be worrying about others now. The most important thing for us right now is to hurry up and leave Aurous Hill safely. If Falco decides to feed the both of us to that big white worm, we will be completely done for!"

Carvalho hesitated for a moment before he nodded gently and sighed as he said, "Sigh. You've got a point. We are already at the point where we are unable to fend for ourselves, so we can only find a way to protect ourselves..."

After he was done speaking, Carvalho said again, "We will find a way to contact Sophie Schulz tomorrow and see if we can find a breakthrough from her."

The next day, a rumor suddenly appeared amongst the people of Aurous Hill. 1

It was said that a paranormal incident had occurred at the Mount Phoenix cemetery and that a security guard who was guarding the cemetery had been killed by an evil spirit last night.

However, this kind of rumor was quickly controlled in a targeted manner. In addition, since this rumor was way too supernatural, only some superstitious middle-aged and elderly people would believe in the rumor. Young people would basically snicker when they heard this. 3

Claire had a surprised expression on her face as she asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?" 2

Elaine was extremely solemn as she said, "Let me tell you. Someone was killed by a ghost at the Mount Phoenix Cemetery last night! Even his brain was completely sucked out! It is said that he was bleeding out of his seven orifices when he died, and there was a big hole on the top of his head. As a result, his head turned out to be an empty shell with nothing inside at all!"
